Interactive serves such clients as Nickelodeon, Primedia, Advanta, Borders

an independent brand.

"We are delighted to join forces with this entrepreneurial online advertising company, which has experienced explosive growth under the leadership of Jonn Behrman," said Edward H. Meyer, Grey Advertising's chairman, president and CEO.

"Together, we intend to leverage Beyond Interactive's capabilities
and proprietary technologies across Grey's entire digital marketing network. This acquisition will enable us to provide clients with a full spectrum of the most advanced Internet communications in the industry."

Grey Advertising, with $7.8 billion in billings, ranks as the sixth largest advertising agency in the world and says it is the largest in the US. Grey's worldwide interactive holdings, with revenues in excess of $75 million annually, rank among the top three companies on Adweek's "Top 50 Interactive" list.
